To many minds il would seem like a waste OF
breath 10 taunt with physical COwardice nan
who has fought about score OF duels; but Deputy
Laur is not deferred by such consideration from
sneerins at the bravery OF Paul de Cassagnac 1t
Will probably be news TO many readers that this
once celebrated duelllSt has declined one or two
meetings under strong prOvoeatiOn. Once when
mercilessly goaded by DR.. Clemenceau, the radical
leader, he refused TO fight because the Doctor was
master OF fence with the left hand, which Cas-
sagnac regarded as involving great advantage
and also because Clemenceau had been heard to
declare that he should fight VI. Cassagnac 10 the
death.f he ever met him IN the field That was
not the kind Of ordeal by combat the hOt-headed
young editor desired. On another occasion lieu
tenant In the navy entered Cassagnac's sanctum
and struck him in the face in presence OF his s
oordinates, daring him at the same time to resent
the insult. InSteadOf fighting or Offering to fight
CaSSagnac turned the matter over TO the police
Sometimes he has covered his retreat from a dan
gerOus place by shaft OF satire when It has been
strongly suspected that he was afraid to face his
enemy. his duel with LiSsagaray, for example,
although an easy task as far the art of swords
mansh1p was concerned, proved his antagonist to
have so much desperate courage that CaSSagnac
declined second meeting In note saying: .'Since
j fought with you and left you riddIed like q
strainer, have reflected that It Is sufficient 10
have been your adversary and that II is useless to
become your butcher" When Victor Noir sent
him cartel, Offering, as usual, the choice of a
weapon, CaSSaQnac chose photography and there.

show that he has done good deal Of thinking on
the subject from of its several points OF view.
There Is a consideration however, on which he has
never touched in any OF his public letters or
speeches so far as we are aware, but which can
not properly be ignored in any general discussion.
The wholesale importation OF "cheap labor"
which practically means pauper labor, tends 10
breed IN the community a certain disregard OF
human life when only the poor and friendless are
the sufferers. The contractor who engages the
services OF gang OF foreign contract la5Orers
feels it; the capitalist who hires the contractor
feels II. The publican who feeds and houses the
iaoorers feels IT. the higher class mechanic who Is
brought into contact with the immigrant gang at
their work feels It, There Is escaping Its infiu-
ence. Here gang OF fifty men, let Us say. They
are alone In the world, without close family ties.
They are several thousand miles away from their
homes; they cannot speak the language OF this
country. Even their names are unknown, save TO

simple business for them: they are designated only

sons, or perhaps painted in conspicuous cOlOrs on
